Rise of the machine

Made more upgrades to my PC today. A few weeks I installed my first graphics card (cheapie nVidia, still have issues with the Linux drivers btw). Last week I got ripped off buying a 512MB stick of PC2700 RAM ($53 should have checked eBay first).

Today I installed my 3rd hard drive. Did you know that motherboards can only support 2 hard drives? Me neither. Lesson learned. So today I got myself an IDE controller card to take care of that. I think this thing is officially maxed out. There’s not a single PCI slot left, and it’s pretty crowded in the case. So I’m going to use the 1st HD for the XP/Mandiva dual boot. 2nd HD for applications. 3rd will be for data (formatted FAT32 so it can be read/written by both OS’s).

Booyaa!

    I love commenting different articles and information. To be honest with you, it’s my hobby. And, by the way commenting different stuff on this web site is one of my favorite things to do in free time. I like to express my mind, and when I realize that I’m wrong, I correct my mistakes. Thank you for a possibility to express myself! I really enjoy it!

    many things to discuss… But anyway I’m not going to discuss such a personal topic. Reading it is ok, but discussing it makes you look like a chatter –box and a rumor-spreader.
